There was a bad crash last week on the A46. I haven't seen it on here so if you got diverted off the A46, along the A1/A52 last Sunday night, you'll know why.

A tanker was heading towards Bingham when a motorcylist, travelling in the opposite direction attempted (subsequently unsucessfully!) to overtake three cars and misjudged it.

As a result the motorbike collided head on with the front of the artic. Unbelievably, he survived the impact, estimated to be at a combined speed over in excess of 140 mph. The bike wiped out the front bumper, drivers headlight, drivers steps and tyre before being dragged down the road under the wheels of the front car he didn't manage to overtake.

I've seen the pictures from the driver involved (a workmate) and it's a bit of a mess. Just goes to show that you can drive as sensibly as you like and out of the blue you can be involved in a near fatality.

I got a job as a comedian in an old folks home. They don't get the jokes but they still piss themselves!
